About

Our program is unique in the way it offers show experience to our riders. In many cases, show opportunities are usually only available to riders who own their own horses. We have a variety of lesson horses that are available to students who do not own one. Our lesson horses have taken kids through their very first show and carried them well into the higher levels. We love being able to take so many of our riders to shows with our team.

Riding has always been my passion and I love sharing that with my students. When something clicks and they understand what they've been working on, it's the greatest feeling.

    Super flexible with scheduling lessons, which is so hard to find with other lesson programs. My job hours don’t always stay the same so it’s nice that she works with me around my schedule!
    Shannon takes such good care of the horses too, and makes sure they arent over worked doing lessons or competing at shows.
    Definitely recommend if you’re looking to show and take lessons (or just lesson!), and want a low stress/low drama environment!

    I have had the pleasure of watching my daughter grow CDE from the ground up! She is well on her way to developing a premier jumper training facility... Shannon’s drive and commitment are a winning combination for ALL at Carpe Diem Equestrian!

    Shannon is an amazing instructor. My daughter has been riding with her for almost 2 years and has grown so much. She has much more confidence than she ever has. She always looks forward to her lessons and seeing Shannon. Shannon is very patient with everyone and loves what she is doing! Highly recommend her for anyone from beginner to advanced!

    I am beyond happy that I found Carpe Diem Equestrian. My 4 and 3 year old girls love attending their lessons with Shannon. She has a lot of patience and allows them to take their time. She has taught them so much about riding and caring for the horses. I couldn’t ask for a better team for them to join.

    Frequently asked questions

    All students learn basics of grooming, leading, handling, and tacking in addition to riding.

    I have grown up around horses and spent my younger years taking consistent riding lessons. I strongly believe that there is always something more to learn, so whenever I get the chance to work with another trainer, I take it! I love continuing my education and finding new ways to help students learn!

    Private lessons: $55

    semi privates: $50

    Haul-ins: $60

    travel to student: $65

    Beginners to advanced riders of all ages!

    Make sure you feel comfortable with your trainer! You want to feel like you can talk to them and tell them if/when you're feeling nervous. You also want to make sure they push you just a smidge outside of your comfort zone, since that's where all your growth will happen!

    The most important question I ask my students is: "what are your goals for riding?" I need to know if their goal is to safely learn how to ride a horse and enjoy their time at the barn or if their goals are to join the Olympic team one day. Both goals are great, but knowing where my students desire to be helps me frame their lessons in a way that will help them reach their goals.
